Conversation In the Woods

In the woods I asked a pigeon, If it minded that we talk and listen; Came the reply, from up on high, Yes, let’s get on with it, nigh. He was as curious about me, As I was about he. We did chat for hours, in fact, It was mostly about cats. He seemed to think it a pity, too, That from cats, I never flew; But I told him we get along; That he viewed cats all wrong. Offended, glanced he, at my eyes And quickly flew away from my side.

In the heart of Nature, a wonderful mysterious with different codes! We behold its Beauty and try to decrypt its silence, whispers and music! Nature is entrancing! Thank you M. L. Kiser for taking us there! A delight! A wonderful write! Be blessed always.

Thanks, Besma; I do love nature and Mother Nature has her own form of music; not just heard by ears but, also heard by the soul. Blessings to you as well.

Oh thanks so much; sometimes the simplest subjects can become very deep when we scrutinize them with the soul.
